**** It generates a random Pokémon by multiplying the total number of edits by the time in seconds (it also uses modulo to keep the number between 1 and 493). So it really changes every time you view the page, but you might have to hard refresh or purge the server's cache to see a change. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 10:40, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

******It is all dependent on {{template|Num2N}}.

*Great article. Only one thing I could complain about, and it's not even that big of a complaint. Eliza 04:01, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
*Great article. I have visited many times and found it useful(which is what Bulbapedia is for right?) And besides, Shinies Are Awesome![[User:Arceus97|Arceus97]] 04:11, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

****I don't know much about the magna, but if there is someone who does, could they write the section on it? That would be useful and improve the article, also it would be a good idea to link to the  Red Gyarados article. ----[[User:Desukaan563|<span style="color:blue">Desukaan563's userpage has a Value Formula to measure Pokémon worth</span>]] <small>''([[User talk:Desukaan563|<span style="color:yellow">talk</span>]])''</small> 03:27, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

*While the article seems mostly complete, I don't feel it's feature quality. The page format is plain, and the sections, and by extension the article as a whole, are really short. Feature articles should be pages which go above and beyond most others, and I don't think this one is up to snuff. --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 12:19, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

*No mention of Colosseum/XD shiny Pokemon, which can be vastly different from the main game shinys, for example Vileplume or Voltorb.  <small><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:blue; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span></small> 22:23, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
*I felt that it should go into the pros and cons of hacking shiny Pokémon because someone offered me a hacked Shiny and I ''still'' don't know whether I should have accepted or if I should accept it in the future... Eliza 04:06, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
**Well, don't pay too highly for it. If it is a legend, it is worth a fairly common legend, if not, hacked would be worth someone fairly rare, though not that rare. I paid a Lv. 60 Honchcrow for a shiny pichu, who may or may not be hacked, but that gives u a basic idea. ----[[User:Desukaan563|<span style="color:blue">Desukaan563's userpage has a Value Formula to measure Pokémon worth</span>]] <small>''([[User talk:Desukaan563|<span style="color:yellow">talk</span>]])''</small> 03:00, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
***A Shiny Pokémon hacked in the normal way should be identical to a legitimate one, except that they are often obtained where they cannot usually be obtained, so the location is often wrong. However, this information should not be added to the page. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:11, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

[[File:Box Colo 352 s.png|right|thumb|A yellow Kecleon]]
* Repeating myself above, shiny's from Colosseum & XD really need a mention, for example shiny Kecleon in the handheld games are green, while the ones in Colo/XD are Yellow. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:blue; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span></small> 21:04, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
